We Bought a Zoo - a movie review


We Bought a Zoo is a comedy-drama film based on a memoir by Benjamin Mee. The film is directed by Cameron Crowe, and it stars actor Matt Damon as the lead character Benjamin Mee. We Bought a Zoo tells the story of Benjamin Mee and his family who just moved into a dilapidated zoo. They took on the challenge of preparing the zoo for its reopening to the public.

I love how this movie was made.  It gives inspiration to people and makes them better.  A feel good movie about the up and downs of life.  How we can cope up with everyday stress and worries, about being a single parent, and how we in our small ways can indeed make change happen.

Based on a true story, We bought a zoo, not only brings joy and hope, but a renewed faith in what is human in all of us.    The movie also stars Scarlett Johansson and Thomas Haden Church with Elle Fanning.  Catch We bought a zoo, now showing at your favorite theaters.
